+  <para>
+  Fedora starts <application>Firefox</application> with a custom 
+  default home page that has links to useful Fedora-related sites. 
+  Navigate to other web pages by typing the address (URL) into 
+  the long navigation bar across the top of the 
+  <application>Firefox</application> screen, replacing the default 
+  <ulink url='http://www.start.fedoraproject.org'>"http://start.fedoraproject.org".

+  <para>
+  If the URL is not known, enter a keyword (or words) into the search bar on the right 
+  of the navigation bar, then press the <guibutton>[ENTER]</guibutton> key. The search 
+  engine used is changed by left-clicking the logo in the search box, presenting a list 
+  of pre-configured options including Google, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon, and Creative Commons.
+  </para>
+  <para>
+  Like other web browsers, <application>Firefox</application> makes it possible to save 
+  a web page for future reference by adding a bookmark to a list of bookmarks. Use the 
+  key combination <keycap>[Ctrl][d]</keycap> to bookmark a page you are viewing. To manage 
+  bookmarks, or do other actions such as bookmarking all open tabs, use the <guimenu>Bookmark
+  </guimenu> menu from the top of the <application>Firefox</application> window. Create a 
+  live bookmark (a feed) that automatically checks for updates from a page with an RSS or Atom 
+  feed. When a feed is available there is an orange icon at the right hand edge of the address 
+  bar. Left click the feed icon and a preview of the feed is displayed. Select the method you 
+  would like to use to subscribe to the feed.
+  </para>
+  <note><title>Use your favorite feed reader</title>
+  <para>
+  <application>Firefox</application> can use a number of popular web-based options for 
+  subscribing to feeds, such as Bloglines, My Yahoo, and Google Reader, as well as 
+  <application>Firefox's</application> own live bookmarks. Another option is to use a desktop 
+  feed reader you have installed, such as <application>Liferea</application>.</note>
